Wanted: DownshiftersWorld's first multilingual study about simpler/slower living

At a certain point in your life, have you decided to downshift/simplify/slow down your life?
Very much so or just a little? Then please surf towww.essencing.com. Your experience may be very valuable to your fellow humans.

Hein Zegers, a Belgian well-being researcher, explains: "You can find a questionnaire on www.essencing.com. This questionnaire explores your
simplifying experience. It takes about 10-15 minutes to complete. Your
responses will be
treated anonymously. At this moment, the questionnaire has been closed and the data are being analyzed. However, we are still doing in-depth interviews. So even if you're living only a little bit simpler or slower, I'm grateful if you get in touch with me!" It is estimated that millions of people worldwide choose a
simpler/slower lifestyle. Yet research into this growing population is
scarce. Multilingual research has been virtually nonexistent. Until now. This multilingual research into simple/slow living is the very first of its kind. Once the data have been analyzed, a results summary will be published on www.essencing.com. If you have any questions or comments,
please feel free to contact hein.zegers<at>gmail.com.
